This was a hilarious post.

If you're annoyed at Word taking more than a minute to load, wait until 
you have to log on, hope your host is up and not busy, and wait for your 
miracle word processor to download, and then make sure you typed your 
document with no mistakes as you can't save it.

Did I just wake up and computer revolution never occurred?  Everybody is 
all hot and bothered over a "revolutionary language" that now can do little 
more than play tic tac toe.  What's the next advance?  Pong?
